Ingredients

  • 3 lb. chicken wings
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 ½ tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • Sauce optional - see Notes

Instructions

  • Place chicken wings in a large bowl. Pour the oil, garlic powder, salt and pepper over them and toss so that the chicken is coated.
  • Heat your grill to medium-high, then place the wings directly on the grill. Cook wings for 20 minutes, turning every 3-4 minutes, until the wings reach an internal temperature of 170°F.
  • Serve the wings as-is, or pour your favorite sauce overtop. Enjoy!
